How do I get data from a table?
in this code data
is a two dimensional array of table data
let oTable = document.getElementById('datatable-id');
let data = [...oTable.rows].map(t => [...t.children].map(u => u.innerText))
This is how I accomplished reading a table in javascript. Basically I drilled down into the rows and then I was able to drill down into the individual cells for each row. This should give you an idea
//gets table
var oTable = document.getElementById('myTable');
//gets rows of table
var rowLength = oTable.rows.length;
//loops through rows
for (i = 0; i < rowLength; i++){
//gets cells of current row
var oCells = oTable.rows.item(i).cells;
//gets amount of cells of current row
var cellLength = oCells.length;
//loops through each cell in current row
for(var j = 0; j < cellLength; j++){
/* get your cell info here */
/* var cellVal = oCells.item(j).innerHTML; */
}
}
UPDATED - TESTED SCRIPT
<table id="myTable">
<tr>
<td>A1</td>
<td>A2</td>
<td>A3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>B1</td>
<td>B2</td>
<td>B3</td>
</tr>
</table>
<script>
//gets table
var oTable = document.getElementById('myTable');
//gets rows of table
var rowLength = oTable.rows.length;
//loops through rows
for (i = 0; i < rowLength; i++){
//gets cells of current row
var oCells = oTable.rows.item(i).cells;
//gets amount of cells of current row
var cellLength = oCells.length;
//loops through each cell in current row
for(var j = 0; j < cellLength; j++){
// get your cell info here
var cellVal = oCells.item(j).innerHTML;
alert(cellVal);
}
}
</script>
